Feature Interview with Top Gear’s Rutledge Wood!

In this episode of the show Larry and I had the chance to interview TV superstar, Rutledge Wood. We’ve both been huge fans of Rut during his run on the U.S. version of Top Gear, and since they featured a recent interview with a comparison of three Pro-Touring cars that were all owned by Pro-Touring.com friends of ours, we reached out for an interview. It turns out…..Rut is totally normal, and was happy to come on!

During the interview we asked everything – and I mean everything – about what it’s like to be on Top Gear, what they thoughts of the Pro-Touring cars, whether Tanner really is as a great a driver as he’s portrayed (he is), whether Adam really is as crazy as he’s portrayed (he is), and whether he believes he truly has a dream job (he does).

He was as funny with us as he is on Top Gear, as well as on his “day job” of hosting the NASCAR pre-races shows on Fox SPorts 1. He truly loves cars, buys half of the vehicles he drives on Top Gear and takes them home, and just put an LS3 into a 1950’s panel van. We’ll plan to catch up with Rut in person at SEMA!

Thanks for the interview, Rut!
